Grant Description
China Eximbank provides $300 million preferential buyer's credit loan for 1244MW Vinh Tan 2 Coal-Fired Power Plant Construction Project On September 7, 2009, China Eximbank and the Vietnam Ministry of Finance signed preferential buyer's credit (PBC) loan framework agreement for the the 1244MW Vinh Tan 2 Coal-Fired Power Plant Construction Project.
Then, on December 17, 2010, China Eximbank and Vietnam Electricity (EVN) — a state-owned power company — signed three loan agreements for this project: (1) RMB 600 million government concessional loan (GCL) agreement with a 17-year maturity (captured via Record ID#65949).
This loan matures in 2027. (2) $300 million preferential buyer’s credit (PBC) agreement with a 17-year maturity (captured via Record ID#35236).
This loan matures in 2027. (3) $695 million buyer’s credit loan (BCL) agreement with an 18-year maturity (captured via Record ID#65950). This loan matures in 2028.
The proceeds of these loans were on-lent by EVN — via 3 separate loans: 04/HĐCVL/EXIMBANK-EVN-G3 (KV 01), 04/HĐCVL/EXIMBANK-EVN-G3 (KV 02), and 04/HĐCVL/EXIMBANK-EVN-G3 (KV 03) — to Power Generation Corporation 3 (EVNGENCO 3), a wholly owned subsidiary of EVN.
The proceeds from these three loans were to be used by the ultimate borrower to cover 85% of the cost ($1.08 billion) of a $1.265 billion EPC contract signed on October 23, 2009 between EVN and Shanghai Electric Group Company Limited. EVN provided counterpart financing for the remaining 15%.
